Snakk (1 piece)

Choose smaller snack portions and avoid eating sugary drinks, candy, pastries, or refined crackers by themselves.

Pair carbohydrate-containing snacks with protein, fat, or fiber—for example, plain Greek yogurt with berries, or an apple with peanut butter.

Prefer slower-digesting options such as nuts, seeds, hummus with non-starchy vegetables, or roasted chickpeas.

Eat snacks after or alongside a balanced meal rather than when very hungry, which can help reduce rapid changes.

Take a short, easy walk after eating if it is safe for you; light activity can reduce the post-snack rise.

If you mean your glucose is dropping too low, or you have symptoms such as shakiness, sweating, confusion, or fainting, follow your clinician’s low-glucose plan and seek urgent care when needed.
